Ah the frankly delishious potato seed-flower........ T&M may your nads be infested with the fleas of a thousand camels, and may your arms be too short to scratch
We had a go at grafting these a few years back and called them Tomtato's....it's a shame that Thompson and Morgan have registered the name as a trademark.
In essence it's just a bit of experimentation with a hefty price tag, the yields we had were small and you had to wait a long season for the tomatoes to ripen before you could use the potatoes.
Reminds me of the episode of the Simpsons where they end up on a farm and after using uranium for fertiliser Homer manages to produce a crop of Tomacco....
So which way round will it be - potatoes that taste of tomato or tomatoes that taste of potato? I can't see Heinz being pleased if it's the former!

You know that saying - if it sounds too good to be true- it usually is? ....
